The Order of the Cross of Takovo (Serbian: Орден Таковског крста, romanized: Orden Takovskog krsta) was a Serbian state order.
History
[edit]It was instituted in the Principality of Serbia in 1865 to mark the 50th anniversary of the Second Serbian Uprising against the Ottoman Empire, which had started with the Takovo Meeting.[1]
The decree that established the Cross and Silver Medal was signed on 22 May 1865 by Mihailo Obrenović, Prince of Serbia. The Order was suppressed in 1903.[2]
